Dreaming the First

Nov 11, 2011 19:04

Warnings: TAUNTINGS and DISNEY under the cut!
Dream Effects: Shocked surprise at first, fading to tenderness- and then a precipitous fall into miserable despair, gradually hardening to bitter determination
Note: While this is no happy dream, it's also not a Moon Cycle nightmare; no illness shall be forthcoming.

Oh come now, I must know more, was there more to that dream than what has been shared?

... Did you grow old and finally seek the princess in that castle?

WHAT the- Who said tha- You could see my dream?!?

[It took a moment for him to realize the smirky voice that suddenly greeted him was coming from the Dreamberry. Congratulations, Wicked Lady; you've got a shirtless glistening confused Philip staring at you!]

[ v i d e o ] impureserenity November 13 2011, 00:50:56 UTC

... Yes.

So, tell me the rest of it, what happens?

[...GREAT. So someone could actually use this magical doohickey to PEER INTO HIS HEAD, eh? He'll probably spend a good bit more time away from this thing in the future.

Still, right now there is a... girl to answer. A rather pushy girl, but still.]

I managed to escape not long after, and set out to save my love and break her spell. And after some considerable tribulations, I succeeded. [Because he really doesn't want to think about the stuff in between right now; not after a dream like that.]

[As Phillip and Aurora did not share a room since they were not yet married, Aurora only heard the scream from her room on the second floor. She jolted awake and hurried down to her betrothed room.]

Phillip! Phillip what's wrong!

Aurora! [He was panting heavily, trying to catch his breath; that nightmare shook him up but good.]

Oh, thank goodness... Just a horrible dream...

[Action] cursedtosleep November 12 2011, 22:30:47 UTC

[She came over to him, and sat on the edge of the bed.]

Did that dream really happen? Did she really do that to you? [She blushes at her betrothed being shirtless. She turns her head although her hand has linked fingers with his.]

[He shuddered all over, trying to shake off the lingering feeling of his dream.] Felt like I was back there... Like even dead, all the future would hold was her horrible cackling...

[So, that would be a 'yes', then.

Feeling Aurora there, her fingers entwined with his own, Philip's eyes finally focused properly on her properly- and with a sigh of soul-deep relief, he moved to take her into his arms upon the instant. He just needed to feel her there, to know that she was safe and awake and real...]

Thank you, my darling. Thank you so, so much.

Oh my. What a dream. Much like a nightmare.

[Video] philip_charming November 12 2011, 23:39:02 UTC

[Even at the best of times, Philip would be hard-pressed to cope with the sudden existence of someone so fabulous~

And this is certainly not the best of times.] Are all dreams somehow public knowledge in this place, or just for me!?

[Video] extravagances November 12 2011, 23:44:00 UTC

[Many people would have a hard time coping with this sort of situation.]

I'm afraid so. It has yet to happen to me, but it would seem it's an every day occurrence.

[He's not particularly familiar with cosmetics at all, much less the kind of mascara this DUDE on a screen is wearing; it's a tricky and disturbing subject to be forced to deal with!]

Of course it is. Privacy is certainly one thing I'll be glad to go home for.

[Nonetheless, he forced a smile. It's not this man/woman/thing's fault, after all.] My apologies; I don't mean to have others suffer through my problems. Is there anything I can do in return Miss...ter...?

D-Did you rescue her? Were you brought here before you could break her spell?

[Video] philip_charming November 13 2011, 05:36:20 UTC

Oh, the fai- I mean, milady Liddell! [Go ahead and have a substantially more reassuring smile than that Mozart guy got. Looks like she needs it more, anyway.]

It's all right, I managed to rescue her- despite all that wicked person did to try stopping me. She won't be bothering anyone ever again, milady.

[He didn't want to be specific about WHAT kind of person she was, not to the little fairy child. No reason for her to feel guilt by association, right?]

Re: [Video] madcuriosity November 13 2011, 05:42:37 UTC

Oh that's very good! Um... is your princess here... or are you... is she in your home?

[Video] philip_charming November 13 2011, 05:47:48 UTC

[He'll chuckle at that, warm and rich; you really know how to cheer him up, don't you Alice?]

I'm in her home right now, milady. I managed to find her but hours after I arrived in this place, and do you know?

You're part of the reason I was able to find her! [BIG cheerful smile is go, now.]
